CHEYENNE MOUNTAIN AIR FORCE STATION, Colo. — The rusted, twisted girder, recovered from the ashes of the World Trade Center, stands sentry outside the tunnel entrance, pointing eastward toward New York City.
But the military command center hidden deep in this granite mountain is not just monitoring the skies for missile launches or potentially threatening aircraft.

My son is a Lieutenant in the U.S. Army reserve. There is talk among these soldiers that the President is calling reserve troops to the D.C. area next month during the election. Several of his friends have already received orders moving them into the area. The rumors is that martial law could be declared and they would be called on by President Obama to restore order if he loses reelection and nullifies the election results to remain in office. This is not conspiracy talk among rignt wing crazies. The question of their use in restoring order begs the question of that nasty rumor of declaring martial law. Under those circumstances the laws of the United States are suspended. Would some lawyer please explain what this means. May I add that this is not fiction and my son is an Obama supporter not some looney-tunes.

Profox wrote of the call up of troops and the enacting of martial law rumors. Yes, this IS conspiracy talk among right-wing crazies. Why do I know this? Because exactly the same rumors were circulating in 2008, that GWBush and Cheney were going to do the exact same thing. Except that time it was the left wing crazies spreading the rumors.
To paraphrase Forrest Gump,
'Crazy is as crazy does'. Doesn't matter if it's from the right or the left, though it does seem that the right may have more crazies...
